About
The band program at North Salem seeks to teach values and skills like discipline, stewardship, leadership, work ethic, collaboration, and strength of character through the teaching and learning of music through performance in band. The band program currently reaches over 100 different students through our 3 levels of concert bands, 2 jazz bands, marching band, and pep band.
